You can sack me, but I'm not the problem says LOT president
The unions are furious with his cost-cutting plans which involve laying off more than one fifth of the staff. Meanwhile, one of the supervisory board members mentions the possibility of a vote on the dismissal of all three vice-presidents of the company, but with Garbarek keeping his post. However, "This would be provocation against the staff. Such a decision could lead to a strike," warns another. The State Treasury has four representatives on the 10-person supervisory board, while LOT employees and the receiver of Swissair have three each. Until now, representatives of the receiver have been voting together with the Treasury. "There is still a lot to do in the company, and its problems will remain no matter who is the president," Garbarek commented on his possible dismissal. (Rzeczpospolita, p. B4) T.J.
